Team News: Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish fit for Leicester City trip

Jack Grealish returns to Aston Villa's starting lineup for the Premier League clash against Leicester City as one of four changes from last time out.

Jack Grealish has been named in Aston Villa's starting lineup for the Premier League trip to Leicester City.

The midfielder has featured just once for the Villans in the top flight so far this term, but he is fit enough to start from the off at the King Power Stadium this afternoon.

Villa have made four changes in all from last time out, in a lineup that also includes centre-back Joleon Lescott for the first time.

Gabby Agbonlahor and Carles Gil are the other two players to come in, with Rudy Gestede, Alan Hutton, Ciaran Clark and Idrissa Gana all making way.

In terms of the visitors, who have made an unbeaten start to the campaign, they can call upon former Villa man Marc Albrighton.

There is also a full debut for summer signing Gokhan Inler, who comes into the fold as one of two changes alongside Shinji Okazaki.

Leicester City: Schmeichel; De Laet, Huth, Morgan, Schlupp; Mahrez, Drinkwater, Inler, Albrighton; Okazaki, Vardy
Subs: King, Kante, Simpson, Kramaric, Ulloa, Dyer, Schwarzer

Aston Villa: Guzan; Bacuna, Richards, Lescott, Amavi; Westwood, Sanchez; Gil, Grealish, Sinclair; Agbonlahor
Subs: Bunn, Hutton, Clark, Veretout, Ayew, Gestede, Richardson
